Adz2332 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 (edited) First off yes sorry for opening another thread but would reali like some advice. Im not sure wheather or not im doing the right thing. And i feel like im getting cold feet. Just need a bit of advice about the two cars. First off at the moment i own a GTST SERIES 2 R33. It has a perfect body and interior. 204.5kws at the wheels Stainless Steel turbo back exhaust POD Power FC and controller Apexi Boost Controller Front and Back strut braces Big Intercooler Aliminium Radiator AVS light weight rims Runs perfect I enjoy it dont get me wrong but if i was to keep it id mod it a bit, most prob get slides high flow and some injectors. Now the car im looking at is a GTR R32 1990 Its got new HKS GT-ss turbos Titaniam Exhaust R33 GTR seats HUge light wieght rims Stock everything else Things i would do to it is new computer (if i can find one a power fc and controller, pods and boost controller) Needs a bit of attention to the paint, needs new tyres. Now ive never reali driven a GTR before and i dont kno if loosing a perfect car will be made up by the experiance of owning a GTR? Is there reali that much differance in driving the two? I wanted to one day use the car at the drags if adelaide ever gets one! soi yer which would be better Its my daily driver car also just a bit worried that im doing the wrong thing and i wont enjoy it as much. i prefer the 33 shape and comfort but im drawn to the GTR badge... any help advice or anything would reali reali be appreciated just a bit confused about what to do... and loosing a hell of alot of sleep over it Thanks Adam Edited August 29, 2007 by Adz2332 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/182928-gtr-32-or-keep-my-gtst-series-2-33-advice-plz/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOSTILE Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 There is no simple answer here... its a matter of personal opinion. Drive both then you will know which you enjoy more. Personally... (and I will probly get flamed for this but...) there are a lot of "nice"33s getting around, there is no substitute for a GTR. You must weigh this up with practicality of everyday driving, maintenance costs etc Good luck.

Madaz Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 do the math on repairs insurance and extra fuel you will use do to sweet sweet sound of RB26 on full tap its not always just about the driving ask Ben Grim32 he's done 2x engine rebuilds due to unforseen circumstances Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/182928-gtr-32-or-keep-my-gtst-series-2-33-advice-plz/#findComment-3317623 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adz2332 Posted August 29, 2007 Author Share Posted August 29, 2007 (edited) do the math on repairs insurance and extra fuel you will use do to sweet sweet sound of RB26 on full tapits not always just about the driving ask Ben Grim32 he's done 2x engine rebuilds due to unforseen circumstances insurance is roughly the same slightly more for the gtr but fuel i was expecting to be roughly the same once i push the 33 out to around 270kws and the gtr being roughly 250kws... yet expecting the gtr to be quicker Also being an older car i guess it will have less comfort features. Worse rid, less safty features etc Edited August 30, 2007 by Adz2332 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/182928-gtr-32-or-keep-my-gtst-series-2-33-advice-plz/#findComment-3317634 Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage GTR Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 After having a R33GTST s'2 and a 2000 wrx and 94R32GTR sitting in the drive way at the same time, I still have the GTR . BUT the wrex and R33 cost bugger all in maintanance. Take a GTR for a drive though and you will want one. There goes the spare cash (hip pocket(OUCH)). Sorry , hate to make things worse.
